In late September 2026, Kuria appeared on Inooro FM and discussed the 2013 and 2017 electoral cycles. During this broadcast, he argued that political strategist legal interventions—such as aggressively challenging the inclusion of rejected ballots in court were what structurally prevented a runoff against the opposition.
The claim
The viral graphic attributes a hyper-specific, direct quote to former Cabinet Secretary and MP Hon. Moses Kuria. The text alleges that he confessed to a criminal conspiracy with Davis Chirchir to "tamper with servers" and "reject ballots" during the 2013 and 2017 elections to forcefully push Uhuru Kenyatta past the 50% + 1 threshold required to avoid a presidential runoff.
The Verdict - FALSE
The image uses layout styles, color schemes, and structural blocks intended to mimic authentic digital breaking-news banners from Kenyan publishers. However, no such graphic exists on the verified feeds of local outlets.
There is no video clip, audio recording, official press statement, or transcription from a reputable media house confirming that Kuria ever uttered this precise quote.
The graphic features a future/arbitrary timeline banner ("25 SEP 2026") used to manufacture artificial urgency on social networks.
